WIW part 2 (6 outfits)

1 – Stripes and jacket.
Yea! Absolutely no groceries or errands were involved in the wearing of this outfit.

2 – Maxi dress and candy
I like casual maxi dresses, they have a formal enough air that I can wear candy jewellery or whatever silly thing with them, and still go out for dinner and not be under-dressed.

3 – Very short torn up dress
I wore this out for my birthday in Toronto, but took the picture a while later when I threw the dress back on to show my guy what it looked like. I wore black sequined pumps with it when I went out but didn’t have them with me for the photo. The dress was slightly bigger when I first wore it – but shrunk a little in the wash, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to wear it again since this post shrinkage length is a little short – even for my high threshold for baring skin.

5 – Disappointing shoes
I like these shoes but they were totally not what I wanted to wear with this. Alas, I had a lot of walking ahead of me so I had to make do. I wore a black blazer as well (on and off throughout the day) but hadn’t yet chosen it when I did the pictures.

6 – Bandage skirt, cape front blouse, and combat boots
I had another big walking day, but even if I didn’t I’m sure I would have worn the combat boots anyway since the blouse is a bit frillier than I’m accustomed to looking.

Thanks for peeking in

KILLER dramatic scarf, belted white blazer, statement necklaces, and of course combat boots! I agree that #3 might have gotten a bit short... too bad. Maybe you can throw it over some skinnies in the cooler months?

Please continue to post outfits -- one of these days I will have the necessary items to shamelessly copy you.

Fabulous looks, Girl X!! You are rocking the black and white outfits like nobody's business. That belted white jacket is flawless on you, and I agree that the striped skirt paired with the ruffled top and the combat boots is pure genius :). All of the other outfits are lovely too...Sad about the dress shrinking...

I love all these outfits and especially the shoes in #1 and #4. I also really like your maxi dress. I've been on the look out for one all summer and just haven't found one that looks good on me, although I always think they look great on other people.

Rae - I'm thinking I might just shorten it into a top and try it that way. Regardless of length, it'll be easier to wear as a top anyway.

Freckles - I bet the skirt is awesome. Let's see it; the brilliant fashion minds of YLF will ensure that you look totally kick ass for your Toronto event.

BJ - The jacket is from http://www.etsy.com/shop/ErinA.....id=6812376 - and it's amazing (check out the pics of all the things you can do with the ties/belt!) It's like some sort of Infinite Jacket - and Erin Klym's craftsmanship is pretty perfect.
